with Sean,you would never guess he has black in him.native American yes,but not black(due to his eyes).

...and all humans are subsets of the original African. So what is your logic behind that??
You are trying to say that Creoles are Black.
Where are you from I may ask?
of course creoles are black.creole is a fancy name for a black person mixed with european and maybe indegenious blood in louisiana before it was purchased by the American government.
although the word creole is used in other colonies for mixed blacks aswell.it comes from the portuguese word criolla.
mixed blacks of the new world colonies are called many things but its still black.do you consider dominicans black?PRs?20 % of the haitians that are mulatto?
youre sounding awfully self-hating.are you afro-latino by any chance?you sound lke many dominicans I knew wich claim they are indio and not black.
Now I'm self-hating. LOL You are going to relegate yourself to Black American woman banter now? We are digressing here.
Creoles are mixed-race; they aren't Black. Creoles have Black roots, but they aren't mostly nor entirely Black. Dominicans consider themselves by the culture which pervades and race is not an imminent, cognizant element of their culture unlike the U.S. of Gay.
Now furthermore, it's not a balanced and transparent question by asking if I'd think Dominicans are Black or not because they are mixed with Castillian, Italian, iotas of Taino, and African blood. I can tell you that some portal cities of the Dominican Republic were slave cities (las ciudades del esclavos) that were portals from W and S Africa. Whether it's a "shame" that most Dominicans dont' consider themselve "Black" is one thing, but since a lot of them manifest their African roots whether they'd realize it or not in their daily-'round-abouts is what matters because their African culture is not lost. Dominicans have more African roots than Black Americans any day of the week despite how Trujillo tried to eviscerate it from DR's culture in efforts to trying to run the Haitians off the island (which almost happened) in almost taking over all of Hispaniola and in efforts to "blanquear/mejorar la raza (whitening & improving the [Dominican] race)".
You know your history for the 96 percent part, but your dispositions on pheno-geneaologies are a shocker to me.
Creoles are a mixed race but it is moreso a culture.you have mixed blacks in most of the new world,besides haiti,most blacks in the new world are mixed with amerindian and White.but they still claim and are proud of their blackness.does that mean they should deny their other roots?no.but they are still black.
with dominicans and alot of afro-latinos they have a sort of reverse one drop rule and theya re proud of Taino or spanish blood but not their african blood.btw,yes most afro-latinos are more close to african culture than americans of african ancestry.but in DR they deny outright that these things(music,food,clothing)are of westafrican origin.
salsa is african,samba is african.bachata is african.la bamba,mexico's famous song,is about africa.but these self hating nikkas will just say its ''latino''.
btw,Lloydthe artist,
is creole,but he would never be mistaked for antyhing other than black.many creoles are straight up black but may have more caucasian features and curly hair.not all creoles look like drake.
I've been to louisiana many times aswell as the deep south.I've seen creoles there.they arent what you try to paint them as.most are proud of their blackness.
